Chapter 17: Memoirs: The Swamp

Master You and Master Chuan sat cross-legged on the ground, their bodies smeared black with plaster. Seeing that the two had not moved for a long time, everyone was also very anxious. Suddenly, Master You opened his eyes suddenly, and he really startled a few people who were anxiously pacing back and forth!

Master You woke up, ignored everyone, and breathed alone. You Wuxian was obedient this time, so he didn't bother again, but stood beside him without saying a word. However, the excited expression betrayed his state of mind at the moment.

Master You adjusted himself for a while, then slowly opened his eyes and called out to the disciple. You Wuxian hurriedly ran to the master, and when he saw that the master's complexion seemed to be much better, he was so happy that he had a handful of snot and tears.

Everyone also gathered around Master You, who looked at everyone, nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, you are all doing well, everyone is okay..."

Before he finished speaking, Lin Dart knelt down with a "poof" and kowtowed to Master You: "Thank you Master You for coming to the rescue! If it weren't for you, our Brother Sichuan would be ~ The great kindness is unforgettable, and there is nothing to repay in this life and this life! If you meet me in the future, if you can use me, please send it..."

Master You waved his hand and interrupted his words: "Master Lin is serious, if it weren't for you and Brother Chuan, my apprentice might have been here before I arrived~ So I should also thank Brother Chuan!"

It's just that this Sichuan brother is unconscious and can't breathe on his own. You carry me to him, and I will help him to open his blood, and as long as he can wake up, he will be fine. ”

At that moment, everyone lifted him behind Chuan Ye according to his words, and Master You lightly put his palms on Chuan Ye's shoulders, and after a while, he felt a slight wind around the two of them. At this moment, there was obviously no wind nearby, but the hair of the two was gently swayed by an invisible force.

In just a moment, beads of sweat the size of beans began to appear on Chuan Ye's head, and his expression became a little painful. Gradually, some changes began to occur in the two of them: the wound was gradually turning black, and drops of dark black poisonous blood were slowly oozing out of the wound. After a while, it flowed all over the body again, and it looked like two bloody people!

You Wuxian was very surprised when he saw this situation, and he became more and more worried. On the other hand, Lin Dart Ye breathed a heavy sigh of relief and patted the former's shoulder: "Okay, Brother Chuan and your master are fine, as long as the poisonous blood is eliminated, as long as you rest and heal the skin trauma, it will be fine." Let's not get in their way, let's go to the other side!"

So they all went to the open area on the other side, and sat down on the ground, basking in the sun. At this time, Boss Ao couldn't help but ask Xiao Lin: "Master Lin, you came back alone, and the horse is gone, are you in any trouble?" But this 'Wen Xiangyu' is a miracle medicine that is difficult to find...... Is there still that place?"

This Lin Dart Ye smiled bitterly and shook his head, he knew what Boss Ao meant, so he said to Boss Ao: "This is a long story, but I advise you to dispel some thoughts, I almost lost my life in order to bring this thing back this time!"

At that moment, I told everyone about the experience of these few hours. (The following is paraphrased from the mouth of Lin Dart, using the first person "I", and will not be repeated below.) )

After I dispersed with you, I rode alone into the depths of the woods, and I didn't care if I was in danger, but I went straight with my head down.

It was very dark, but the horse we were equipped with was a highland horse unique to Fengjiao (a town in the northwest), and it could control its body well in the woods even if the vision was not good. So the speed along the way was still very fast, but I didn't know exactly where it was, and I didn't know how long it was, so I could only walk and look through the woods.

I went over mountains and mountains, through several ditches, and down several valleys. But I haven't seen half of the places suitable for the growth of Wen Xiangyu, let alone Wen Xiangyu. Seeing the time pass minute by minute, my heart is also very anxious.

At the moment, I found a high ground, but at this time I couldn't see the moon, and I couldn't tell the difference between east and west, north and south. I could vaguely see a very low terrain in the distance, which seemed to be a canyon. The strange thing is that there is a white expanse on that side, and I don't know if it is fog or what. Intuitively, I thought I should try my luck there, so I pinpointed the direction and went downhill.

The slope looked close, but it was far away, and I had been walking for about half an hour when I suddenly smelled a faint smell of sulfur. I'm overjoyed, it seems that I've really been in the right place this time!

Sure enough, after walking for a while, I turned a few big trees, and my eyes suddenly opened up. Ahead was a large swamp, the mud gurgling and bubbling, and a large putrid stench mixed with the smell of sulfur pierced the nose, and even the eyes felt very sore after being exposed to this environment for a long time. I tied my horse to a tree trunk on the side and looked around along the edge of the marsh.

The swamp is not very large, and it takes a while to walk around. On the other side there is a stream flowing out of the ravine. In the middle is a small pond with very clear water, and there are lotus flowers and lotus leaves in the water. The water in the swamp flows down from the lotus pond above.

However, Wen Xiangyu was not found. Am I so unlucky that there is no such thing here? Then I set my eyes on the middle of the swamp, where the fog was so thick that I couldn't see anything, and it didn't look like a plant that could grow. But since they're all here, they have to go there and try it, otherwise they won't come in vain.

The swamp is a very dangerous place, the water can be deep and shallow, and the most terrible thing is the silt inside. If you're lucky, you might step on half of your leg and take some effort to pull it out. If you're unlucky, step into it and don't even think about coming out again, it will slowly devour you until you sink deep into the ground and be buried alive!

I'd heard before about how terrible this kind of place was, so I found a bundle of twigs and stepped into it carefully. Fortunately, there are some places where you can stay, and when you take a step, I will stick a branch there to make a mark, so that I can come back and follow the mark.

But this kind of temptation while walking is very time-consuming, but you can't be too anxious, otherwise your life will be lost!

It didn't take long for me to get out of breath and sweat profusely. There was billowing smoke all around, which made me dizzy, and sometimes I accidentally stepped into the water, and the water actually burned my feet!

Looking around, I couldn't see anything, and this feeling made people feel very empty, and they were almost about to retreat.

Suddenly, I vaguely saw a bulge not far ahead. I leaned over cautiously and found that it was a small semi-circular mound, but I wondered how there could be a mound in this place.

I didn't care so much, I climbed up, looked around, and suddenly I smelled a strange aroma in the pungent smell!

The smell of this aroma was also very refreshing, so I followed the smell and finally found a few plants growing next to a puddle in front of the mound!

After careful identification, it is exactly as Boss Ao said: there are four leaves at the bottom of it, and the flower stem is short and smooth;

I was so happy that I was about to go down to pick it, but before I could leave, I realized that something was wrong. When I first arrived, I was stimulated by the surrounding environment, and I couldn't even notice anything in my head. Now I smell the aroma of warm fragrant jade, and my brain is much clearer, and I finally find that something is wrong.

There seemed to be a faint vibration under his feet, but it was very regular and not obvious. I carefully identified it for a while, and came up with a result that surprised me~ I was actually standing on the body of a big monster!

At that time, I was so shocked that I broke out in a cold sweat, and I didn't dare to move for a long time. If it weren't for the darkness and this damn fog, I wouldn't have been here!

But seeing that this warm fragrant jade was at his fingertips, he was unwilling. After looking closely, the monster under his feet seemed to be sleeping, and it didn't move for a long time.

I let go of my courage and crept down slowly~ and then walked to the side of the warm fragrant jade without making a sound. I picked three flowers in a row, and when I turned around, I found that the monster was still sleeping. I couldn't help but exhale lightly, and quickly followed the mark back to the edge of the swamp. It was also good luck that he got the miracle medicine and didn't wake up the monster.

Later, I thought, it's not appropriate to hold this thing in my hand like this, and there is no suitable container on my body, if it all shakes off on the road, it will outweigh the loss~ I remembered the lotus leaf upstream.

I came to the top of the swamp, and the marshland environment here and downstream was a world of difference. Perhaps it is due to the marshland, but although it is late autumn, the surrounding climate is very warm, and the lotus leaves and lotus flowers here grow vigorously.

I was on tiptoe enough to pull a lotus leaf. The stem of the lotus leaf is tough and folding, so I pull it hard. Hearing a muffled "click", the stem broke, bounced back, and then a circle of water spread out.

I carefully wrapped Wen Xiangyu and put it in my arms. I just wanted to turn around and drive away, but suddenly I saw a wave sweeping in the middle of the lotus pond. My instinct made me feel that the wave was unusual, so I retreated.

Suddenly, there was a sound of water, and a monster suddenly appeared in the water and climbed ashore! It was too dark to see anything clearly, and I could only see from the outline that the monster's body was very slender. The ears are very pointed, and a pair of strange eyes are staring at me in the dark night, and they look at the hairs in my heart!

This escape made me panic, and I could only run around the swamp by feeling, and I didn't dare to turn back. I could only hear the sound of footsteps behind me, and I knew that it was catching up. Seeing the monster behind him chasing closer and closer, a vague shadow suddenly appeared in front of him, like a wall.

I was quite puzzled, I had walked around the swamp before, and I didn't find a wall? Suddenly I realized that this was a wall, and it was clearly a big monster in the swamp!

As soon as I exclaimed, there was a fishy wind blowing in my face, and I saw a bloody mouth sweeping across it, and it bit straight over! At that time, my cold hair stood up, and a fierce spirit rolled on the side, and it was able to avoid the blow of the monster!

As soon as I stood up, I quickly looked over and noticed that the monster following me seemed to be unlucky, and was bitten by the big monster. The bite is "creaking"~

I did not dare to pause, but hurried forward, and saw the horse I was tethering in the distance. At this time, there was a "crackling" sound of water slapping from the depths of the swamp behind him, and the movement was very loud. I was like, there was more than one monster in this way!

Without thinking about it, I drew my knife, ran to the horse with my head down, and cut the leash with a single blow. In this case, there was no time to untie the rope, so I jumped up and flipped on the horse's back, and rode on.

At this moment, a fierce wind came behind me, and I hurriedly rode my horse behind the tree, only to hear a loud click behind me! When I turned around, I saw that the big tree with a thick waist that was tied to the horse had been bitten off! I was frightened and hurriedly drove away on my horse.

At this time, the sky began to light slowly, and I rode my horse, arguing about the direction of dawn. The monster followed after him, chasing after him. I only heard the rumbling behind me, the sound was amazing, and when I hit a big tree, I felt like I was shaking the ground, and the smaller tree was also directly broken!

I fled for my life, and I don't know how far I fled, but I could hear the noise behind me getting closer and closer. All of a sudden, the body of the horse under him was suddenly beaten.

At this stop, I threw myself out of the horse with my hands and feet, and fell straight to the point where I was in pain and my eyes were full of stars. When I got up and looked at it, I was stunned in an instant!

At this time, it was dawn, and the surroundings could be seen clearly. The horse I was riding had been bitten by the monster and was struggling there weakly. At this moment, I finally saw the whole picture of the monster, and the monster was three feet long!

It was covered in silt, covered in hard scales the size of a palm. It has four legs and a stout and powerful tail. It's like a big lizard overall!

However, the proportions of limbs and tail are much shorter. The head is like a big frog, and under a pair of bulging eyes the size of a wheel, there is a disproportionately large mouth!

As far as this image is concerned, it looks like an ancient strange beast that was often said in stories before, called "Pixiu". But no one has ever seen what Pixiu looks like, so let's just describe the monster in front of him.

The big creature stretched out and shrunk in agreement, and my horse was dragged into the monster's maw, without any resistance. The size of the horse, in front of it, is almost like a cat and mouse, not worth mentioning.

I was very distressed at the time, this horse has been with me for many years, and I have a deep affection. But in this case, no one can do anything~ Gritted his teeth at the moment, and ran away on foot without looking back.

"Along the way, I found that the monster had not followed. At this time, I could already see the sun, so I used the sun as the basis and found it all the way with the direction of the Qianjun stone in my impression.

I got lost a few times along the way, and then later~ I don't need to say more. But finally caught up! I can save Brother Chuan and Master You, and it's worth it if the horse dies......" After hearing Lin Dart, everyone listening to it on the side couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief!

They didn't expect that Lin Dart Ye would be so bumpy and rugged all the way. The listener is thrilled to be excruciating, let alone experienced it firsthand......
